/dev/random / Postgraduate Research Survey

Insightful

Yo,

I'm doing my postgraduate research on the relation between game trailers and company reputation. If you are a gamer then I would much appreciate it if you would participate in the survey. It only takes a few minutes to complete.

Thanks!

Quake / Re: Myrmidon's Retirement and Pak and Config

Well-Reasoned Argument and/or Conclusion

Thanks for the compliments and offer, Reefer. It's nice to hear from someone who actually appreciates what I tried to offer the Q2 scene.

Alas, quitting Q2 was always on the cards for me; the loss of my headphones just sped things up. The true reason ("personal reasons") I am quitting is because, as some people in the scene already know, I've been suffering from an anxiety disorder called Agoraphobia for the last three years, and Quake 2 has been somewhat detrimental to my recovery. I hate to say this, but during my latter years in Quake 2, it felt more like a sickness than a pleasure, and quitting was the only way I could purge this sickness. I took a lot of flak from a lot of people in the community over the years as well, so laying Q2 to rest feels like a burden has been lifted. It wasn't just my headphones, either. Earlier in the year my 120hz monitor broke, too; and I also had to switch to wireless internet last year. It's been one problem after another, and my headphones were really the final straw.

I turned 33 last week, and I really don't want to lose anymore of my life to Q2 or this Agoraphobia.
